vprot.exe*32 possible malware?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

My pc has been running terribly slow as of the last few days. I noticed one or two strange processes running. This was vprot.exe*32 | VProtect Application (Non Official)

 

I have ran a malwarebytes scan which picked up a couple of possible malware. However after those were fixed the current issue was still ongoing.

 

Below i have attached the Farbar scan.

 

Apologies for the lack of technical detail in my post. Please inform me of what else would be needed to help with any issues.

 

Kind regards.
